I am going to post the following on the Rybka Forum. It will be our most important game so far!

Hello Fish Men,
As some of you know we have established a Hiarcs forum Chess team and have played several games so far which have been a lot of fun. The Hiarcs Forum Team now feel it is time to go Fishing.
We would like to challenge this Fishy Forum to a match. I spoke to Turbojuice about this as he has been a regular player on the Hiarcs forum. He likes the idea but is unable to commit to being Captain of your team. However I suggest that he helps set up your team if you are brave enough to accept this challenge against the mighty Hiarcs Forum.
The basic rules would be up to 48 hours to play each move. Official move to be posted, by your Captain, in the Tournament section of the Hiarcs forum. You are free to organise your team as you wish and use any hardware/software that you can find. I suggest we play 2 games 1 after another so we each get black and white.
I propose that we start the match in June after Hiarcs wins Leiden
In such a difficult and critical situation I cannot but offer my concourse to this. I am not so strong as before, but I still can look at the screen and get a hint from Hiarcs.
hehehe

Thanks Fern - Once we get enough volunteers we will set up another Secret Thread to discuss how best to cook the Fish.
No flagging this time! That means I'll be sometimes moving at a 36 hours per move rate instead of 48, to have 0 risk on this issue. I expect Rybka Forum's captain to do the same, unless you can find someone that doesn't need any sleep and can be on 24/7.
we will need to coordinate with the Fishka captain all members of each secret thread when the time comes
we of course cannot have Fishka team players reading our thread and vice versa
i realize that members can register with a different name but we must reply on the honor system that no one will do that
however sometimes members can register and just go to the secret thread with out realizing it..probably best to draw up a list of players in both forums and then coordinate it between the two Captains
or perhaps an arbiter can be appointed who will have access to both secret threads to look for..

Hi Steve,
I am sure we can assume fair play...
Is there any engine restrictions e.g. The Hiarcs forum team can't use Rybka and the Rybka forum team can't use Hiarcs?
If we stick close to the 48 hour time control - I am fairly sure I will have time to follow and cast a few votes...

cast a few votes for the Hiarcs team i assume?
no restrictions
pure freestyle
however i imagine the main engines used here will be Hiarcs because as we know Hiarcs is a Fishka killer(who knows perhaps even the Fishka's will be using Hiarcs a great deal)
I just received an offer from rybka forum in order to give to them my support. They cannot do it without a strong player like me, they said.
Nevertheless, I insisted Hiarcs has the first priority, provided some enticements are delivered.

Hi Fern,
If you look at your posts you will see that you are now an Admiral.
